Neither the design of the new Avlis2 systems, nor the coded implementations thereof, will be found in Avlis1. Those are new ideas for the new game. and improved it to remove the things that caused problems like grinding 100's or 1,000's of items to gain a level, and the amount of FOIG that made it ...

It took me 3 days to realize that ability bonuses don't stack. Doh! i.e. my rogue has +3 dex from boots +1 from bracers +1 from a belt and an item that casts Cats Grace (+4) All used together I get +4. (the highest bonus?) With none of the gear equipped and Cats cast... I get +4. I suppose this is ...

FYI, we will not be using the NWN2 crafting system. Avlis 2 is using a completely new crafting system. We have developed it to keep what everyone loved about Avlis' system, like it not being tied to class levels and researching recipes; and improved it to remove the things that caused problems like...

The crafting is now based on skills and feats which will make it so that everyone is not a master of all crafting. Doing a crafting character build can really be an RP part of the game as opposed to I will mindless make 12,000 kits to get to my next level of crafting. FYI, we will not be using the ...

Given how much people have whined about HotU's running animations, I see this being a HUGE problem for some people. Hell, I liked the HotU animations, and the clips I've seen of NWN2 still leave me gagging! :rate0:

Hey all. It seems the revert overide for the non-HotU walk annimations do not work with 1.67. Does anyone know of a new overide pack for them?

Of course, your situation could mirror mine. I got the then-girlfriend/now-fiance to try it, and now she's a DM.

It's not always a horror story, but the cautionary tales are something to keep in mind.

I got to take a quick look at it today. It looked pretty good. The tilesets are pretty standard right now, but even if they don't add any more, they're still good enough for 95% of the areas in Avlis right now.
